Potty Train Your Little Boy Or Girl In 3 Days Or Less
The best way to teach your child to go to the potty is to do an intensive training session for 1 - 3 days where you are completely focused on the child. If possible get everyone else out of the house and try not to have any visitors. You are going to be spending all your time with the child for the duration of the training session.
Make sure you have been feeding your child lots of fibrous foods and heaps of water. It's important that they have soft poos. This eliminates any chance of hard to pass painful poos. You don't want your child getting discouraged from going to the potty at this point.
The potty is now your friend so keep it with you wherever you are in the house. Reinforce your little person frequently that they need to go to the potty like a big person and wear big person pants. When they do go make sure you do a big song and dance and celebrate. Each victory you have can lead to more victories and your child will love the positive and will be encouraged to keep using the potty.
If you stick with it you and your child will soon be diaper free. Just remember to never let your frustration show. It's positive feedback all the way on this one. If they make a mistake let them know that it's OK and they'll get better at it. Children love to emulate the big people. They are trained from birth to pee and poo in a diaper and whatever you may think it can't be comfortable for them. If it's all they know then how would they know the difference.
